I have mostly Redding and RCBS dies on my loading bench, but I'm thinking of trying the Lyman MSR Precision Dies for loading .350 Legend. I like the fact that they're a 4-die set, with separate bullet seater and taper-crimp dies. The small-base sizer for use in an AR should be nice, as well.
I haven't used Lyman dies in forever, so I figured I check and see if anyone is running them (and what they think of them), before ordering.

Haven't heard of that particular set. I run Hornady for the 350 and 450. I don't use the expander die in either set. In all other calibers, I much prefer other brands, but in these 2, the Hornady sets work fine.

Had excellent luck with the standard Lee Precision 2-die set--and not just in the .350.

When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

The Lyman dies arrived. They look nice, and work well. I polished the bullet seater plug, because it was leaving slight rings on the nose of the bullet. It works better, now!
I loaded 100 rounds with them, so far, and all is well.
